Ceratopsians The most widely recognized ceratopsian dinosaur is Triceratops, but this was a very diverse group of Cretaceous herbivores and the only group that may have been adaptively radiating near the end of the period.
No armour, quick and agile: an alternative strategy... Curiously, the most abundant and diverse of the Cretaceous herbivores were the unarmoured ornithopod dinosaurs, specifically the hypsilophodontids and iguanodontian lines, all of which achieved cosmopolitan distribution.
